Mitosis and Asexual Reproduction

In asexual reproduction, all of the offspring are:

• Physically Identical
• Genetically Identical
• Physically and Genetically Identical
• Not Identical

Many animal species such as sea stars and flat worms are able to replace missing body parts. Multiple genetically identical offspring can even be produced from body parts. This process is called:

• Regeneration

• Vegetative propagation

• Budding

• Fission

The process by which the genetic material is divided equally between two new cells is called:

• Fertilization

• Mitosis

• Respiration

• Protein synthesis

Why would it be important to replicate DNA before a cell divides in mitosis or meiosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.
• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.
• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.
• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.
